This year’s winner, Healthcare Support Technologies, has demonstrated this and more and we’re pleased to recognize their accomplishments.”

The system features connections to thousands of labs, hospitals, pharmacies and commercial and government payers, and fully integrates with all of the operational functions of a physician practice, simplifying administrative tasks such as billing, scheduling and documentation.
